How to distinguish ear mites from black mud

First of all: the colors are different. Ear mites are dark brown, and if you look closely you can see brown or light brown ear mites (with a magnifying glass).

Secondly: dirt has different properties. Cats with ear mites secrete a lot of oil-like brown fluid from their ears. Ear mite wax appears in irregular sheets and sticks to the cat's ears.

If it is mud, firstly, the distribution should be even, not lumpy. Second: There should not be a large amount of brown liquid secretion. Third: The touch is different. (If you like) Take a small piece of earwax and twist it with your fingers. The mud can be easily twisted evenly and feels delicate. Ear mite wax feels rough and difficult to twist open.

If you have ear mites, you can directly drop a few drops of Suisinin into the ear canal, immediately cover your ears and gently massage your ears to allow the liquid to fully flow into the ear canal, and then rub the base of the ear for half a minute to clean the ear mites Come out, let the cat shake its head to shake off the liquid, and then wipe the ears clean with a clean cotton swab.
